Hi<br />
<br />
What is the easiest way to get a combo box (in MFC) to change the colour of certain items in a combo box. For example, suppose there are three items in the combo: A, B and C. I want A to be red, B to be green and C to be blue. I may also want to change these colours at runtime.<br />
<br />
What is the best way to do this?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance<br />
<br />

Color Items in a Combo Box

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.

System Programming

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
